This year's holiday season is just a couple of months away and it looks like Verizon has quite a lineup prepared for your shopping needs. A source has provided IGN with a shot of an internal document that lists a number of upcoming devices and their release dates, some we already had a hunch about and others that have yet to be announced.

Among the list of devices and their release dates, one of the most notable is the scheduled November release of a Samsung Galaxy Tab P8, packing Verizon's 4G LTE radio. Our source was unable to verify what the P8 is referring to, although the yet to be released Tab 8.9 comes to mind.

Surprisingly, a previously unannounced 4G BlackBerry Curve is listed with a September 8 release date. We already knew that a new BlackBerry Bold and a couple of new Torches were on their way but, until now, a 4G Curve was totally unheard of. Additionally, the document lists a new BlackBerry Playbook, though doesn't provide a specific release range or any details.

Also listed appears to be a firm release date for the dual-core, 4G Motorola Droid Bionic. The September 8 release date was already expected by many, so this appears to be set in stone.

Other notable items include the September 8 release of the 4G Samsung Stratosphere, rumored to be the Verizon version of the Samsung Galaxy S 2, and the October 20 date for the LG Revolution 2, the obvious successor to the current Revolution.

An LG Crescendo is listed as well, set for an October 13 release and looks to be replacing the LG Cosmo Touch feature phone. And rounding out the juicy leak, the Android Gingerbread powered HTC Bliss appears to be hitting stores on September 29th.

Clearly missing is any information pertaining to the iPad 3 or iPhone 5. Considering how tight Apple is with their secrets, I wouldn't be surprised if those are hidden behind some very thick, closed doors.
